Nice going. And look at how humble he acknowledges his achievement. Doesn't sound simple-minded to me.

Yes, for anyone who's tried to up their level of expertise at any discipline, a change of teachers is not unusual. TW with Butch harmon, Hank Haney, and now.... Naysayers always look back to the golden days and say, "he/she should have stayed with A/B/C of the golden days." But life goes on. There are 2nd and 3rd stages of a career.

Himajin good comments. And Yasukuni's comment that It's as if everybody thinks God is watching their every move and will send angels to prevent accidents. Amazing more people aren't hit by cars it pertains to almost ALL facets of life here, when you think about it.

Walk a mile in the man's mocassins. (spelling?). Who among us is without sin let us caste the first stone. I don't believe people are so short on memory as to overlook their own colassole stupid acts while on this earth, only to shoot arrows at a man who gave millions great hope, joy at the marvel of his talent during a spell of downperiod, where yes, he acted stupid, without reprieve. But one's past is simply that. We get a new day each and everyday we're alive, and so does TW. Let's pray for his good nature to once again lead the way in his life. For all his "Badness", he created two children and his first wife will live for ever and a day on his agreed to support earnings. Those are very worthy accomplishments in my book, One sportswriter I've read takes him to task because he broke up his family and left kids fatherless. Its not true. He's still their father. How many father's in this country spend "quality time" with their own children? Most don't have a clue, though they remain married and under one roof. Life is a b...tch. Let's give him a chance. Good luck Tiger Woods! In golf and in your personal life!

TBS drama mini-series contains a trio of superstars, two of which are either gay or leaning heavily towards it. I leave to your imagination who the non-gay is, but its not the baseball player. This type of omission from whats going on in the real world makes this a half-story.

Welcome to Japan. 70 people 2 million yen. Simple math says one time about 60,000 (split down the middle). Expensive, but no shortage of customers 50 X 70 =350 and counting. There are places that charge 10,000-30,000-50,000 etc. This must have had the luxury tax of an additional 10,000 yen for the "underage" deluxe item on it.

"Worked on their marriage a little harder"!? Sorry alladin, any oil in the lamp? TW worked on his mojo to the tune of 18 (some say 80 is closer to reality) full-blown pick-ups. This ain't something that can be "worked on", I'm afraid. Damage is damage. Like a full-blown automobile accident. You just don't piece it together when its totalled. We'll never know whether the trouble preceeded the trouble, but somewhere the nuts and bolts of the "marriage" came loose. Probably between the first and second child as it takes time to accumulate so many. That's what is puzzling. Or is that normal? Whatever. What the public really wants to know is"how much did it cost him financially?" Or in other words, "How much did she get?" Everything else is just so much happenstance. And this is from a TW fan. Its also a lesson to show how quickly a prime athlete can go down the drain, though the speed with which this happened is quite unbelievalble. n other words, he was winning and having the extramaritals, and only when he was discovered did he stop winning. What was going on in his brain? No one will figure it out? No one of the 18 (80) will conflict or tell? Boggles the mind.

There's only one way. Ban the use during work. Its a dilemma of our time. People substitute whatever methods of communication with face to face or phone to phone methods of past days. If your going to pay someone, lay down the law. In these days, taking a taxi is prohibited due to rising costs. Put a 9 to 5 ban on twitter and others.......and see how the life of the employee changes.

I don't watch TV here, make that I don't HAVE a TV, but I've seen enough over the years, and its total garbage ad infinitum. So now we have the stripper Kusanagi coming together with Ichiro. Hunky Dory. Let's call Shinsuke Shimada and see if he can't make the gala too!

Yes growing it is a crime, and a very profitable crime at that! I've heard that the people that do grow suddenly have alarming spikes in their electricity bills, like to the tune of 150,000 a month. I'm sure if records were checked, this guys electric bill would be in that neighborhood. Other than that, there's almost no expense, and the turnover is 100 fold or more. And like tobacco smoking, once addicted, the consumer just can't stop, so its an on-going market and on-going cash cow, or in this case cash plant.

He's a great reggae singer. Sang on the 9-11 tribute album with many others. Guess his adapted country offers more opportunity and it got to his head. "Well, I'll just skip back home and run for President."

Timeon...right on. He probably got so confident or demented (or both) that he imagined participating in a barbque would help camouflage the real culprit.

An early 70's song went "I want to be a hippy got to get stoned on mari marijuana." Think its 1970 in Japan these days?

Yes, Mike Piazz's bat. I couldn't recall the dudes name at the time of writing. But yes, it was a clear case of roid rage. Nothing compares with it except his beaning Piazza in the head with close to dead heat the previous year. That "message" pitch too, was no accident in my book. And look at Clemens face during now being posted of the time he "testified" before Congress. Talk about trying to lie and get away with it!

Anyone who saw the way he whipped the bat precariously close to Mike S. running to first to force the throw after it broke and rolled benignly to the mound had to think the guy was juiced. Such a reaction never happened before or since, and it was uncontrollabe roid rage, pure and simple. The previous year he beaned the same guy in the head, because he was known to be able to hit RC out of the stadium more than once. The size of his head (both in and out) is very similar to Barry Bonds. This guy is GUILTY as sin. What a BSer to boot. I don't care about his "25 years of service" ha. Multi-Millionaire steroid user who "rejuvenated his career" late in his 30's. Hello?

I doubt they're allowed to laugh out loud in Beijin Irock. What Mark Twain said over 100 years ago is as true now as it was when he said it. "Democracy is the worst form of gov't....except for all the others."
